     a.  The Borrower is currently in default under the Senior Debt Coverage
Ratio set forth in Section 7.4A of the LSA for the test period of the Borrower
ending December 31, 2010 (the "Financial Covenant Default") and the Lender
hereby waives the Financial Covenant Default for the test period ending December
31, 2010 (the "Financial Covenant Default Waivers").

     b.  The Obligors acknowledge that one or more of them have failed to make
certain pension plan contributions which were due on April 15, 2011 (the
"Pension Plan Contribution Defaults") and, that as a result thereof, there has
occurred an Event of Default under the LSA.  In addition, the Obligors further
acknowledge that one or more of them do not expect to make certain pension plan
contributions which are due on July 15, 2011 (the "Anticipated Pension Plan
Contribution Defaults") and, that if such contributions are not made, there
shall occur an Event of Default under the LSA.  Subject to the proviso herein
below, the Lender hereby agrees to waive such Pension Plan Contribution Defaults
with respect to the April 15, 2011 payment date and to prospectively waive the
Anticipated Pension Plan Contribution Defaults with respect to the July 15, 2011
payment date, provided, however, that in the event that the IRS or any other
Governmental Authority takes any enforcement action or otherwise exercises any
rights and remedies it may have against any Obligor with respect to such Pension
Plan Contribution Defaults and/or such Anticipated Pension Plan Contribution
Defaults (any such enforcement action or exercise of rights and remedies being
referred to as a "Pension Plan Enforcement Action"), any such Pension Plan
Enforcement Action shall constitute a separate and distinct Event of Default
under and within the meaning of the LSA which shall entitle the Lender to
exercise any and all of its rights and remedies thereunder and at law.

     c.  By their signatures below, each of the Obligors hereby acknowledges and
agrees that the Financial Covenant Default Waiver and the waivers set forth in
Section 3.b. above are

                                       6
<PAGE>

one-time waivers for the period or dates specifically specified above and that
the execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Agreement shall not, except as
expressly provided herein, operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of
the Lender under the LSA or any of the other Loan Documents, nor constitute or
be construed or interpreted, directly or by implication, as a waiver of or an
amendment or modification to any other obligation of any Obligor to the Lender
under the LSA or any of the other Loan Documents.

corporate and other due diligence matters pertaining to each of the Additional
Guarantors as the Lender may require, each of which shall be in form and content
satisfactory to the Lender in its sole discretion.  The failure to deliver any
of the forgoing items within the stated time shall constitute an Event of
Default under the LSA.

6.  Effect of Amendment; Reaffirmation of Liens and other Obligations.  Lender
and each Obligor hereby agree and acknowledge that (except as provided in this
Agreement and the Fourth Amended and Restated Converted Term Note), the LSA, the
Guaranty, the Notes and the other Loan Documents (together with all Schedules

Collateral (as defined in the Guarantor Security Agreement) shall continue to
secure the payment and performance of all of its obligations and liabilities to
the Lender arising under the Guaranty.

7.  Fees and Expenses.  In addition to the Amendment and Waiver Fee, the
Borrower agrees to pay all reasonable legal fees and expenses of Lender incurred
in connection with the preparation, negotiation and execution of this Agreement.

accordance with the laws of the State of Connecticut (except its conflicts of
laws provisions).

9.  Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of identical
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which
shall collectively constitute a single agreement, fully binding upon and
enforceable against the parties hereto.

10.  Capitalized Terms.  All capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this
Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the LSA.
